How can I create a function that cuts a polygon mesh based on where I click like 3DS Max does? I know this is a lot easier to ask then it is to answer but I'm not even sure how I would input the data from the mouse? Any ideas would be appreciated.

Remember Codeka is my alternate account, just remember that!

I think you need to look up "mesh picking" in some search engine.

Or do you mean "cutting" an object along a plane csg style?
